I'd be fine with that, imo having to stand still for 8 seconds has become an increasing liability. That is of course if we can assume that other DPS also lose their raid cooldowns. I don't recall seeing any hints that Blizzard was moving this direction but I haven't really been paying attention lately.
I seem to recall a long time ago I almost always agreed with your posts but I could not disagree more with this one. Not that it would bother me if those 2 changes were made but there are many things much more important. Certainly ramp up time is far more important. Better on demand burst would also be quite helpful. I could go on but those are the 2 culprits that are most likely to get a Feral sat on certain progression fights.
